PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) — Paul Bessire, known better by the the nickname of his program, “The Prediction Machine,” checked in with The Fan Morning Show Thursday for his regular weekly spot, which can be heard Thursdays at 8:40 a.m.

Bessire’s machine, which simulates each game 1,000 times, expects the Panthers to win outright tonight, given a number of issues the Giants are dealing with.

He didn’t feel Oakland is as bad as some make them out to be, and the machine suggests the game is too close to call against the spread.

As usual, Bessire had plenty to say about a wide array of upcoming NFL games, and gave the machine’s recommendations for which games should be the best plays.
